damn, what is the engine in those things?

3 liter straight six, I believe...
Those are badass cars, I'd love to have one. A little on the heavy side but it's a luxury car.

Is the 2JZ already in it, or is that planned?
I can't tell.

Very cool. I almost picked up a pearl white one, then I decided I wasn't a gangster

.
The red looks good though, why a complete color change? Get some nicer wheels on there, and you'll have a sweet drift ride.
Speaking of drifting, what happend to the side of that thing? Ouch.

you cant tell from the pics but it looks like the sc 300 due to the lack of the spoiler. the 300's are not as fast as the 400's

It's still well over 200 hp... and it IS the 2JZ, so there's plenty of room for improvement.

SC400s only came auto.

doing a NA-T or swapping a 2JZ into it? also, are those Supra turbo (17") or NA (16") wheels? if you are planning on upgrading the rims, hit me up, i will buy those if they are 17" (already have the 16") for my Supra.

Im going to NA-T the car eventually. The car was hit by a lady who ran a light, not drifting. Im not into drifting, at all. I like horsepower...and this car will have no problem getting me to anywhere I could want to be in that arena. I LOVE these cars! I mean LOVE! I'm so excited I have one of my own. I wanted a black 5sp but heres a good oportunity to paint one to my liking!

So what happened to Hana? Passed on to someone we know, or gone for good?

The 300's had the 2JZ-GE. The Supra TT had the 2JZ-GTE. Different... everything. Still NA-T, the GE blocks can handle a good bit of power.
What happened to Hana?

by ryan?
the GE and GTE bottom ends are exactly the same minus the pistons. With a 2.5 head gasket I'll be able to make more power than I could ever use. I don't need to goin the 1000hp club just yet, 500 is a good start

Hana went to a fellow named Justin. He's a real nice guy. I don't know if he has started a BBS account yet but I know hes lurking...we see you Justin..... haha

Really? It's just the pistons? Good to know.
I've always wanted an MKIV Supra TT. When I worked at Nissan, someone traded in a beautiful, silver, MKIV TT with 30,000 miles. We gave him some lowball offer on it (like $10k), and he took it. It was a 6-speed, targa top, stock down to the clutch. Full Toyota Service records, oil changed every 3000 ON THE DOT, and not a dent on it. It sat for a while, but eventually sold for a nickle over $60,000.

Somebody got rid of that for 10k?? He didn't deserve to own it if he thought so little of it. I hope he was trading it for something crazy.

Yeah really. If I worked there when he was trading that in I would get the money somehow and buy it. You can't find an MKIV 6 speed Supra for less than $25g's, no matter what kind of miles it has on it.
On another note, the Lexus IS300 also runs the 2JZ. Sweet car and a 4 door.

I would have bought it, but they tried to screw me. The car was at the Toyota dealership next door (same owner of the dealerships).
I would have bought it THAT day, if I could have gotten it for $12 to $15. It would have actually been an investment! Plus, I'd have a Supra!
